This has been an all time favourite of my families forever, especially as a Sunday Night sit-down meal. It is a meal you can have all year round and can be served with a salad or roasted veggies depending on the season. It’s also a great meal to take on picnics served cold with salad. Sharing my Slow Cooked Lemon Pepper Chicken.

Slow Cooked Lemon Pepper Chicken

Who else loves their slow cooker just as much as I do? To be able to pop all of the ingredients into the slow cooker turn on and leave just makes my busy life so much easier. And you can cook practically anything in it! Another of our favourites is  Slow Cooked Asian Style Oxtail.

A little trick that I learned back when I went to Hotel Management School was to use aluminium foil balls. This lifts your chicken/ meat up off the bottom of the slow cooker and prevents it burning and sticking to the base. It also helps circulate an even temperature flow around the chicken/ meat to allow even cooking.
